As we approach Thanksgiving tomorrow, and then the Christmas holiday, the thought of blessings is ever more present in my mind. We are a family that prays together and every day we do so, whether it’s as we begin a new day, before we enjoy a meal, or as we thank the Lord at the… Continue reading Appreciating life’s blessings
My husband and I couldn’t be more different when it comes to birthday celebrations, particularly our own. I love celebrating birthdays. Cards, gifts, cake, pictures…the works. Whether it’s low key or something a little bigger, I just love to celebrate birthdays. My husband on the other hand prefers not to get any gifts and just… Continue reading A special creation
This morning my husband was sharing with me that the night before the topic at his meditation class was about fear, the things we are most fearful of. As he began to share some of what the teachers and students opened up about and I sat there listening, I could feel this knot in… Continue reading It’s time to step out out of my comfy shell

Not sure why I feel the need to explain this because it’s totally unrelated to my post, but anyway, it provides some… Continue reading It’s Really Just A Number
Last year my husband and I kept saying we wanted to write a list of goals that we wanted to accomplish but never got around to it. Plus with me in school and then switching jobs, it left little room for us to really sit down and plan out any vacations so we would often just do… Continue reading 2014: Live it with Intention!

I should be working on my research paper that is due on Thursday but instead I am sitting here needing to write because I feel like the emotions I am having right now are like fingers wrapped around my neck, choking me slowly. I am almost scared to put this out there because I am… Continue reading Like Fingers Wrapped Around My Neck
Thursday has been one of my favorite days lately (along with Saturday and Sunday) but Thursdays have their own little special moment for me because it’s my blogging day. The only thing is as much a I would love to write something lengthier, I am feeling so tired right now, all I want to do… Continue reading Your wings
